A male entertainer in the 1970s, the father-of-three is no stranger to attention and started posting his workouts online around two years ago.

However he wasn’t prepared for the huge response his videos received.

‘I was reposted on a group for overs forties who keep fit and all of a sudden I had thousands of people following me and interested in how I managed to look like I do,’ she explained.

‘I thought it would be a fun opportunity to speak with people about keeping fit and to maybe tell them how I keep in shape.’

Sharing that he is very disciplined when it comes to his daily routine, Bill eats the same thing every day – oats, omelettes, chicken and salads – and doesn’t drink alcohol.   

‘I have two breakfasts and a chicken salad and then I head to the gym around midday for at least two hours, sometimes three,’ he explained.

‘I just tell people what I do as they seem interested,’ he said.

‘I have always eaten to stay alive. I see food as fuel. I am always trying to get my body fat down.’
